This 8 mile long forested, dirt road begins right off Hwy 38, just east of Heart Bar Campground and is an easy turn to miss. One tiny, brown sign is all that is found (on the guard rail). Driving too fast, you are bound to miss it.<\/p>\n

The unimproved route heads north through the National Forest, up and over and around SugarLoaf Mountain (elev 9952′), then down to the Big Bear Lake region.<\/p>\n

Several primitive sites – yellow post camp sites<\/a> – can be found way back in here<\/a>, but you might NOT be able to have a campfire (depending on fire restrictions). Check w\/ local rangers before you head out.<\/p>\n

\"snow\" Forest roads are often closed (gated) during the winter, when snow and rain make a muddy mess of the terrain. Rock slides are also common in wetter months. Call the local rangers to inquire on road conditions or if this route is open.<\/p>\n

\"Road<\/p>\n

The whole Big Bear Mountain area is a SoCal favorite forest destination, for weekenders and travelers alike. Mountain biking, hiking, backpacking, horseback riding, camping and 4-wheeling.<\/p>\n

Plus the recreational lake is full of more water recreation w\/ tourist shops and restaurants. Stay away from the crowds and take the back roads for adventure and recreation. Spend less money, stay outta town and camp for free.<\/p>\n
